class Ifc2x3::IfcRelProjectsElement : public Ifc2x3::IfcRelConnects

The IfcRelProjectsElement is an objectified relationship between an element and one projection element that creates a modifier to the shape of the element. The relationship is defined to be a 1:1 relationship, if an element has more than one projection, several relationship objects have to be used, each pointing to a different projection element. The IfcRelProjectsElement establishes an aggregation relationship between the main element and a sub ordinary addition feature.

NOTE In contrary the IfcRelAggregates relationship established an aggregation of equal parts to a whole.

The IfcRelProjectsElement implies a Boolean operation of addition for the geometric bodies of the element and the feature element. As with all decomposition relationships it determines:

existence dependency - the RelatedFeatureElement cannot exist without the RelatingElement hierarchical and non-cyclical relationship - the IfcRelProjectsElement can only alter a single IfcElement no spatial containment - the IfcFeatureElementAddition as related element never participates in the hiearchical spatial containment relationship IfcRelContainedInSpatialStructure

HISTORY New entity in Release IFC2x Edition 2. IFC2x4 CHANGE Supertype changed to IfcRelDecomposes.

Public Functions

::Ifc2x3::IfcElement *RelatingElement() const

Element at which a projection is created by the associated IfcProjectionElement.

void setRelatingElement(::Ifc2x3::IfcElement *v)
::Ifc2x3::IfcFeatureElementAddition *RelatedFeatureElement() const

Reference to the IfcFeatureElementAddition that defines an addition to the volume of the element, by using a Boolean addition operation. An example is a projection at the associated element.
